History & Fast Facts

School History

Our elementary school was founded in 1985 after members of Covenant Church met for a year-long season of prayer, fasting, study, and discussion about educating their children in God’s ways of wisdom and love.

In 1987, we developed our “Daniel mission statement” and articulated the school’s Six Words: Courage, Humility, Respect, Integrity, Seeker of God, and Teachability.

In 1996, the school had 60 students and moved from its original classroom in Park Avenue Congregational Church in Arlington to its current location at 9 Westminster Ave in Arlington.

In 2009, we founded Highrock Covenant Preschool, a partnership between Covenant School and Highrock Church.

In 2012, we consolidated the preschool and elementary programs into one independent 501(c)(3) corporation under the name New Covenant School, Incorporated.

In 2015, we added a dedicated 4 year old Pre-Kindergarten program to our Elementary School.

?In 2016, we were unable to renew the lease for our Preschool program, so our former Preschool Director acquired the Preschool and moved it to Sommerville as its own non-profit organization under the name Kingdom Rock Children’s Village, Inc.
